This would probably be a good place to start. As I understand, DNS lookups are one of the more expensive aspects of an MTA's operation.
You should also review your VERP settings; if you look around, I believe you can find a pretty good analysis of what different values get you. I'm a bit tired right now, or else I'd make an effort at pretending like I remember this stuff. ;) That said, you may want to ask around postfix places and see if you can get any help from that direction. Mailman doesn't have much network impact, and you can't really tweak it beyond adjusting VERP. Make sure that personalization is turned off... -- - Patrick Bogen ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq01.027.htp
